The Reeve

The Watcher of the Friend

​Positioned on the side closest to the path or the “gentle” aspect.
​The Persona: In Old English, a Reeve was an official or overseer of a manor. This tree is the “Master of Ceremonies” who turns a traveler into a guest.

​The Narrative: > “I am the Reeve of the Threshold. I translate the ancient language of the wood into the warmth of a ‘Home.’ I catch the first light to show the way, and I drop my shadows like a soft cloak for the weary. To the friend, I am the open hand; to the family, I am the deep-rooted belonging. Enter here and find your Liss.”
